Please Love Me Episode 10 Recap
> Please Love Me Recap
As a light pole crashed down, Pei Youyou's clothes were ripped, though she remained unharmed. Liu Tiannuo quickly took off his own jacket and offered it to her. Witnessing this, Yi Han became jealous, pulling Youyou away and leading her into a private room. He demanded she remove Liu Tiannuo's jacket and wear his instead, but Youyou stubbornly refused. Their playful struggle was captured by paparazzi who had gathered outside the door.
Back home, Yi Han teased Youyou by showing her meme-like photos taken of her during the incident, which she found embarrassing. The next day, Yi Han had no scenes, so he took Youyou to an amusement park and an ice-themed attraction. He claimed it was "professional training" for her to get accustomed to public attention, but both genuinely enjoyed their time together. Inside the "Ice World," Youyou expressed her fondness for the place because of the movie "Frozen."
She shared her belief that those who love us are always near, and we should be brave enough to face our true selves and dreams, striving to achieve our goals. Yi Han, in turn, confessed that while he now had fame, he felt less free than he imagined. He truly wished to be an outstanding singer and actor, not just a celebrity, acknowledging the irony that he needed fame to gain recognition for his art.
That evening, news of Yi Han and his "girlfriend's" sweet date at the amusement park became a trending topic. Yi Han dismissed it as a trivial matter. Meanwhile, Qingqing, seeing the trending news, was consumed by jealousy. When Gao Lang called her, asking if she had obtained the dating contract, Qingqing lied, telling him she had not yet received it.
Elsewhere, Ran Zishu, observing Yi Han and Pei Youyou's high-profile dating, felt envious and instructed her assistant, Jiang Kai, to arrange a similar public date with her own boyfriend. Ran Zishu then approached Lu Ming, stating they should make their relationship public. Lu Ming, however, preferred their love to remain a private affair, questioning the need for grand gestures. Ran Zishu retorted that a relationship unknown to the world was merely an "underground relationship."
On their way to the film set, she feigned an eye irritation, then dramatically claimed to have twisted her ankle. Lu Ming, initially concerned, picked her up. Spotting numerous reporters, he quickly realized she was faking her injuries to create photo opportunities. He set her down, telling her she was being foolish and wasting other people's time and public resources.
Back on set, Yi Han endured a six-hour shoot for a scene requiring him to carry a heavy suitcase up stairs. Liu Tiannuo repeatedly called "Cut!" and demanded reshoots. Frustrated, Yi Han accused Liu Tiannuo of targeting him. Liu Tiannuo defended himself, asserting he was only being responsible for his project and that Yi Han's perceived challenges stemmed from his own performance. Enraged, Yi Han ripped his costume and declared he would not continue filming.
His assistant frantically called Kan Di. When Kan Di spoke with Liu Tiannuo, she apologized for Yi Han's departure and offered to cover any losses incurred. Liu Tiannuo graciously said he understood the emotional nature of actors and would give Yi Han time to adjust, then dismissed the crew for the day, instructing them to film the leading lady's scenes tomorrow. Afterward, Lu Ming directly asked Liu Tiannuo if he was truly interested in Youyou.
Liu Tiannuo smiled, stating that while he understood Lu Ming's thoughts, the day's events with Yi Han were entirely unrelated to any personal feelings he might have for Youyou, emphasizing his sole focus was making a good film. Later, Ran Zishu, still upset about Lu Ming's reaction, saw a photo of them on his phone. She pleaded with him not to delete it, calling it their only picture together.
Lu Ming, teasingly, took a new selfie with her and set it as his wallpaper. Ran Zishu then apologized for her "silly act" that delayed the crew's work. Lu Ming explained he was angry about her unprofessional behavior, having learned from Liu Tiannuo the importance of both skills and attitude. She promised to change, and after some playful banter, she asked if he was still her boyfriend.
He replied, "Depending on what you do," but then gave her a consoling hug. Meanwhile, Yi Han ignored Kan Di's calls, sending her a message that he needed to be alone. He then drove to Youyou's nail salon. Seeing her working on nail designs, he turned away when she noticed him, feigning that he was "just passing by" and wanted to take her home.
As she continued drawing, Yi Han complimented her artwork, an unusual occurrence that made Youyou question if the director had scolded him. He denied it. Youyou then mused on the complexities of adult life, where problems are too intricate to be solved by simply yelling back, unlike a child's cries. She concluded that despite life's general harshness, there were always small, wonderful things worth embracing. Yi Han asked Youyou to join him by the seaside for a drink.
He confided in her, likening himself to a bird that had been caged for too long, whose wings had aged despite now having freedom. Youyou perceptively realized he had run away from the set, feeling wronged and dejected about returning. She gently encouraged him to go back, explaining that his lack of freedom stemmed from being needed and anticipated by others. Yi Han then revealed his costume was damaged. Youyou immediately offered to fix it, suggesting adding a brooch.
As she began, Youyou demonstrated her detailed understanding of the character Shen Bing and his preferences, even attributing her insight to growing up with Liu Tiannuo. Yi Han, clearly jealous, snatched the jacket back from her. Youyou reassured him, explaining that Liu Tiannuo's meticulous nature contributed to his unique style. Yi Han admitted that Liu Tiannuo's talent made him doubt his own.
Youyou vehemently asserted Yi Han's talent, stating she had seen all his dramas and even named her favorite character he played, Mr. Su in "If I Weren't Myself," praising his portrayal of struggle and unrequited love. Deeply moved, Yi Han asked, "You still don't admit that you like me?" and then kissed her.
The next morning, Yi Han arrived at the film set to find himself surrounded by reporters, who relentlessly questioned him about his alleged "diva" behavior and abrupt departure from filming. Liu Tiannuo quickly intervened, addressing the media. He clarified that Yi Han had not quit or left, attributing the previous day's events to a "regular business discussion." He praised Yi Han's "superb professional integrity" and dedication, urging reporters not to misinterpret the situation, which helped to disperse them.
Still replaying the previous night's kiss with Youyou in his mind, Yi Han texted her. Before he could receive a reply, he received an anonymous message on his phone. It contained a photo of the dating contract and demanded he come alone to Room 1615 at Lijun Hotel, next to the film set, within 20 minutes, threatening to expose the contract's contents if he failed to comply.
